Default The day came and the day went - MY AUSSIE DRIVING TEST!!!

Well folks what a day it was yesterday - no sleep the night before as expected, panic attack in the middle of the night just thinking about it! (not Bix) my DRIVING TEST

I PASSED - YIPPEE DIPPEE DO

Boy I'm so bloody relieved, no more blinkin driving lessons after work - yeah!!!

Took a while to sink in to be honest - its been such a long time comin' - wondered if I'd ever get there!

The examiner was great - I was lucky to have such a nice guy, he was so relaxed and helped me relax and I PASSED because of it I think - my nerves just vanished - part of me, believe it or not, actually enjoyed the test - now I know I must be going a bit MAD! Well you lot know that already dont you living with BIX

Anyway, good luck to anyone else abt to take their driving test - hope you have a lovely examiner like me

Arguments have already started about whos gonna have the car and it was BIX who insisted I start driving again - so guess what folks.............he can ...............

Wow that's excellent news, now you'll be able to share the driving equally Bix can drive to the pub you can drive home. Sounds like the old lions onto another winner

Congratulations to you, and of course I concur with what has already been said, Always drive to where you want to go and let him drive home, not only so that you can drink, but so you can show him the way there and if you get lost, which you won't because you are a woman, we know you won't be too scared to ask for directions like men are

Enjoy!
